The Eucharist Altar Book: a 1662 service order, with additional devotions
The Eucharist is an Anglican liturgy that uses the 1662 Book of Common Prayer form with devotional additions from the Sarum Rite.
The former has been the use of the church since the 16th century; the latter the centuries which preceded it.
The source material comes from 1892, 1928, 1662 Books of Common Prayer, as well as English translations of the Sarum Rite. It is designed primarily for use with the 1662: International Edition, the 2019 ACNA Traditional Language Edition Books of Common Prayer, with an option aligning to the 1928 American edition.
This 2023 revised edition organizes and integrates the content of the Prayer Book to enable an officiant to lead services from 1662:International Edition, 2019: Traditional Language Edition, or 1928 American Prayer Books.PDF is sized for 7" x 10" large-ish print, but is readable in half-sheet 5.5" x 8.5" binders, as well as large print full sheet notebooks.
1662 Contemporary Language Edition
A Contemporary Language Edition of the 1662 Altar book is available for those seeking to transition to a Catholic Anglican implementation of the 1662 service, but not yet inclusive of the traditional elevated language. 1662:IE page numbers are included inline for reference and catechetical purposes.
The PDF is sized for 7" x 10" large-ish print, but is readable in half-sheet 5.5" x 8.5" binders, as well as large-print full sheet notebooks. This Eucharistic Text is based upon the 2008 An Anglican Prayer Book,* developed for the Anglican Mission in America. An Anglican Prayer Book has been used in the AMiA, ACNA, ACA, and was unanimously approved for trial use at the 2008 REC General Council.

Missal Inserts for the 1662: International Edition Service Book
This is a single-sheet insert to supplement Sarum Missal portions to the 1662:International Edition Service Book.
The PDF can be printed “actual size” on Ledger (11 x 14) and cut down to 9.5 x 12. It is set so that one follows page 264 → 264b, flip insert, 265 → 265b, flip and continue at 266, opting for the Prayer of Thanksgiving after the Lord’s Prayer.
Service Cards for the Book of Common Prayer (1928, 1662ie 2019tle, 2019)
1928/1662IE/2019TLE
1928/1662IE Exhortation
These altar service cards are intended to serve a mnemonic aids for the portions a priest or deacon would use when he is facing the people in ad orientem celebration, including the exhortation to communion. With these and a Holy Gospel book, one would not need to pick up the altar book or carry an extra prayer book at the altar. One of the cards includes a woodcut from a Percy Dearmer altar book, which is intended look seemly on the altar (if cards are not laid flat), and can be held as a decent cover to the cards when facing the people.

Selections of Psalms
1945
1928
While the 1662IE Book of Common Prayer is in many ways superior to the 1928 Book of Common Prayer in terms of user-friendliness, it does lack a few things. One flagged recently is the “Selections of Psalms” on page ix of the 1928 BCP. Provided here is a PDF with similar font/typography to the 1662IE, sized for 4x6 to be kept in the BCP: [PDF download]
Think St Augustine’s Prayer Book but tuned to 1662IE and 2019TLE.
